  I believe this bug is in Upstart due to similar bug that was recently
  fixed:

  - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/936667

  I am booting Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (x86) as a domU under Xen.  After the
  previous bug was fixed, I still received the errors but the system now
  boots which is an improvement.  During the boot process I see a few
  combinations of this error:

  ====
  init: Failed to create pty - disabling logging for job
  init: Temporary process spawn error: No such file or directory
  ====

  After those two stop, I see a few more of these errors:

  ====
  init: Failed to create pty - disabling logging for job
  ====

  The above error also prints if I type "poweroff" or "shutdown"

  This system's ultimate destiny is to operate using a custom-compiled
  Linux kernel that does not exist on the filesystem.  Both the Ubuntu-
  supplied Linux kernel and the custom-compiled Linux kernel are
  afflicted by this bug.

  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
